Friends,
Live in Las Vegas and Cox Communications is my ISP provider. For about a month now, I have noticed packet loss reported in my system gateway logs. This is at random times and would like to understand if this is DNS or WAN IP within the ISP's network. Recently last couple of months noticed this behaviour.
My cable modem that I purchased Device Name: Motorola Surfboard Model: SB6120 that is fairly old which I will look at upgrading. Motorola SB6120 SURFboard DOCSIS 3.0 eXtreme Broadband Cable Modem
Thinking of changing from COX DNS servers and pointing them to Google 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4. for starters. Thoughts?

Let me know what you think AND if other consumers are experiencing same issue's in Las Vegas.
Thank You

Looking for a 9” .300blk. Will consider other lengths OR 5.56 if the price is right. $300.
Comment then pm please. Thank you!

As the title. I thought back at some version there is vibration but it I just noticed it today that the vibration is gone.
I have tried with bluetooth connection and wired connection, and the controller is at full battery.
I tried the vibration from 0% to 150% w/ and w/o accurate vibration and none of the settings changed anything. I also saw an old thread almost a month ago suggests that I change back and forth between Pro controller and joycon setup but does not work either.
​
Is this only me? Only this version? Or some setting I messed up? Looking for suggestions! Thanks guys!

Hey, all.
I am currently just getting into modding, and I wanted to ask modders (and non-modders) about this idea I am (slowly) working on.
I want to make a more narrative focused campaign in IE - this is all outline for now but:

• The main Chaos factions will not spawn (unless they are the player) until a certain point, similar to a crisis.

This is from the idea that if you were to play like, the Empire or Dwarfs, that Norsca and the north would be full of cults and Norscans (naturally) and the more chaos corruption grew, the faster and more powerful the main Chaos factions would spawn.
So you could either deal with the threat early by 'cleansing' the north - making Chaos spawn weaker but be weaker against say, Greenskins and Vampires and so on.

• If playing as Chaos factions (or Greenskins/Vampires) you would be playing the reverse with a twist. So spawning in Turn 1 with a few Dark Fortresses (or Level 5 Settlements for other races) and high tier units but facing a united Order heading north.
  
  • This is more like a making a 'late-game' mod just from Turn 1, but I feel like it would be fun narratively.

I also feel like a lot of this could apply to other races where they could start off very strong with many settlements and armies, but have so much trouble, negative events etc. that their empires could crumble quickly, similar to the Lizardmen vs. Skaven where early on I was thinking of inputting army spawns, and city nukes to make the starts as apocalyptic (for the Lizardmen) as possible.
So, I wanted to ask modders if these conditions could be possible - and non-modders about if a more narrative campaign would be fun.

Hello, I recently got interested in investing in crypto but honestly I dont know fom where to start learning. My plan is to just DCA ethereum and stake some of it and just hold for 5-7 years. I will buy cold wallet in the future but for now I think I will be using hot one. I know theres a way to stake if you have 32 ethr but I dont think I will be doing that. I know theres liquid staking but im not sure how it works and if its safe. Im trying to read more about it and watch videos but most of them seems kinda sus and like a scam. Please help me to understand it a bit. TIA!

I've been working on a homebrew Exhaustion / Sanity system for my upcoming Curse of Strahd campaign that I thought I'd post here for feedback and possibly inspire some further thoughts and discussion.
Borrowing heavily on TheDungeonCoach 's Exhaustion tweaks (namely revamping Exhaustion to be a scaling -1 penalty) I wanted to also include a mechanic for "Mental / Spiritual" afflictions beyond psychic / necrotic damage.
Here's the synopsis of the mechanic.:
A character's Dread can be between 0 and 10 and a character can gain Dread in a number of ways, including:

• Failing a Save on an environmental effect or hazard that would usually give Exhaustion.
• Failing a Save on an effect from a Haunt, supernatural creature, or other horrific situation.
• Having your character's HP reach 0 and falling Unconscious.

Game Effects

• For every point of Dread that your character has:
  • You take a -1 penalty per level to any d20 rolls.
  • You reduce your Spell Save DC by -1.
• For every two points of Dread, you take a -5 penalty to your Movement Speed.
• At 10 points of Dread, your character either dies or goes mad, depending on what is most appropriate at the time.

Removing Dread

• During a Short Rest a character can remove 1 point of Dread by spending a Hit Die.
• During a Long Rest in an Unsafe Location (Wilderness, Dungeons, etc.) a character can spend Hit Dice (up to their Proficiency Bonus) to remove 1 point of Dread per Hit Die spent.
• During a Long Rest in a Safe Location (Determined by the DM) a character can remove as many Dread as they have Hit Dice available to spend.
• Some other items, effects, and situations may remove Dread, (to be determined)

I have the mechanics as well as some insights as to the problems I'm trying to solve here which will be a living doc as I make updates. Thanks in advance!

New to the game. I was using refineries to turn oil into plastic. I had an output for the plastic and for the residue into a tank. This was going well for several real-life hours. Then the oil just stopped entering the refinery. The power was on, the residue tank was empty, and there was plenty of oil in the pipe segments, but it the ammount of oil in the refinery never increased and nothing got produced, or it would add ~0.5 of oil then stop. This problem affected both refineries.
I rebuilt the refinery and the pipe segment leading up to it; no change. Is this a known bug, and how do you deal with it?
The problem did start when I split the pipe to use a 2nd refinery, but it persisted after I disconnected that 2nd refinery pipe network.

I'll start by saying that I came into XO Kitty with big expectations, probably bigger than they should have been. I was a huge fan of TATBILB and that series of films. The idea that we'd be following Kitty (who was very well-received and liked in the series before) felt like a good one, and to see them located in Korea felt like a fresh take and opportunity to essentially continue a great, yet alternate storyline for the franchise.
With that being said, this show was rough. I tried my hardest to enjoy this show, often telling myself at times that "it has to get better than this, but to no avail. And I honestly don't know what to blame it on. My gut tells me to blame it on the writers, but there's just so much wrong with this show that it's hard to pin point any one thing that caused it's demise.
The show started with a fairly simple premise. Kitty has a long-distance boyfriend Dae, for whom happens to go to the same exact college that her mother went to. Boom. Right then and there. Simple. A story about Dae and their relationship, as well as her finding and exploring the life that her mother once had at that school and that country.
But man...did it derail from there.
You have a show that is centered around convenience at almost every turn.
Kitty gets hit by a car, a car that happens to be harboring Yuri, who just happens to not only be going to the same exact school as Kitty....but also secretly is having a fake tryst of sorts with....you guessed it, Kitty's long-distance boy friend, Dae. Both speak about their "relationships", but the specifics of both of their relationships being with Dae conveniently stays mum.
From there, we quickly find out that Yuri, somewhat randomly, isn't actually with Dae, but more so, is gay, and has an ongoing relationship that she is hiding from here family. And the person in which she has a secret relationship with? Literally, a random as hell token African American girl. Tell us you're not checking a box, just to check a box. And Yuri's mom, again conveniently, is the principal of the school KISS. Go figure.
Fast forward, Kitty tries to surprise Dae at the dance, and you guessed it again, conveniently finds out that Dae is the person that Yuri has been talking to the whole summer.
And then comes all of the utter stupidity from there.
For all the problems the show had, 90% of them could have been answered in the first 2 episodes. If I had a dollar for every time a character tried talking to another character, only to be conveniently interrupted by another character...I'd be rich. I don't know how many times this happened, but it just seemed to be this ongoing screw job from the writers. "Hey, let me tell you everything....BAM, oh no, my friend just walked in the room, and I have to go, I'll talk to you later about it". Literally, who the hell does that in the real world? There were at least 4-5 times this happened in the first 2 episodes, and it got to a point where it just felt like the show was taking the audience to be morons.
The show continues on quite a bitter with these tasteless conveniences and oddball writing habits, only to find it's way towards the mid point of the season. And this is where everything gets completely derailed for me. The idea of her going to Korea to find out more about her mom seems to just fly out the window completely. What was once a promising (and intriguing storyline heading into the show), feels like it got run over by a train and was left to rot.
We're suddenly introduced to all of these random sub plots. Yuri's father, and his random as hell mini story line...Florian and Q's relationship, that almost at one point, seemed to be more interesting than anything that goes on in the show. To suddenly, the biggest shocker (and not in a good way) of them all....
Kitty suddenly decides that she has feelings for Yuri? The same Yuri that she hated for much of the first 1/2 of the show...until...Yuri did a literally...random AF mini DJ set. And all of a sudden, Dae feels like an after thought, and Kitty is conveniently bi-sexual now? Like where on earth did all of this come from?
This show felt like it had a premise going in, but almost utterly got overthrown by many of the same things we see other shows and films falling prey to. Bad writing, political correctness, storylines that center on LGBTQ communities and the thought process of "it's ok to be gay" and "there shouldn't be a stigma against it". It felt as though the show almost purposely turned into a soap box rather than actually developing a cohesive, interesting storyline. Kitty's sudden "bi-ness" just fell completely under the umbrella of "uh, what the ____"
The show is just a mess.
The acting is horrible. The writing is even more atrocious. Dae's character was the most utterly boring character to hit television in a long time. I felt the casting for both Dae and Yuri were off the mark. Q and Florian I did like, although Florian seemed to be about as basic and "expected" of a choice for the type of character he was portraying.
I honestly left the show thinking...what the hell did I just watch. And man, did I really want this show to be good. Couple in the other random storylines with the principal, the father, all of these really weird love triangles but not love triangles, the writing, the political correctness.
I hoped for more from the show. It will be very curious to me to see how they address season 2 if they do decide to bring it back. There's a lot to fix, and simply put, it really does start with the writing and the story.

Western Europe primarily. Here's some data:
England & Wales: Christianity: 46%, Non-Religion: 37%, Not-Stated: 6% (Christianity down 13% since 2011) (Official Census Data)
France: Christianity: 50%, Non-Religion: 33%, Undeclared: 9%
Belgium: Christianity: 46%, Non-Religion: 26%, Atheism: 15%
Netherlands: Non-Religion: 57%, Christian: 36%
Germany: Christianity: 53%, Non-Religion: 42%
Czechia: Non-Religion: 48%, Christianity: 12%, Undeclared: 30% (I think Czechia is the most non-religious country on earth)
Sweden: Christianity: 61%, Non-Religion: 36%
Finland: Christianity: 66%, Non-Religion: 32%
Norway oddly enough is a bit higher, but it likely depends how this data was collected. Keep in mind that church attendance data may be give you even more context. In the UK, it's about between 2-5% of the population. Many people tick "Christian" out of instinct on these censuses.

I left some seeds in water for 6 days now (mostly as an experiment, I've had really bad luck w my seeds and I wanted to see if they could germinate in water) and since day one they've been developing a weird translucent halo, they looks like minighosts around the seeds. here are some pictures, I tried my best but I don't know if you guys can see it well
my seeds are bag seeds. my guy calls it "Mexican" weed but I know that doesn't mean anything.
I left these in water for 24h to sink but they didn't, I didn't want to waste them so I decided to make a little experiment and see if they could germinate in water
they've been in Costa Rican tap water if it matters at all, it's safe for people to drink so I thought it wouldn't be an issue buuuut now I don't know
they're been indoors on a whiskey tumbler that's been on top of a heating mat that's been at 75ish F for 5 days now
did I screw up my seeds? is this normal? if so, what's this called?
any help is appreciated! the first time I tried planting seeds (on peat soil) all of them germinated (sadly, I didn't know enough to keep them healthy and they all died) and now I can't get a single seed to germinate in any medium any more, and it's really discouraging
let me know if I need to clarify something, English isn't my first language

Hey, I currently have a Ryzen 5 2600 CPU. Should I upgrade to a 5600X, 5800X3D, or AM5? Is it worth going with ryzen 5000 even though AM5 will be supported through 2026?
